Once you’ve completed the exterior examination, your next step is looking at the garage door parts found within the interior of the garage.

Spring Assessment: First things first, you need to observe the condition of the springs inside your garage.

Typically, these springs are found above the system panel that is located either above or along the sides of your Garage Door Repair Southwest Florida.
